The Governor of California ain't got NOTHIN' on "The Lizanator." That's right..sweet lil' Liz...the queen of the hand-rocket handshake. This bump and run commando has delivered a double barrel assault of enthusiasm at Beaver Pond shows.  Her skills at Pond Squad recruitment (by means of Predator-like stealth) are just as sound as John Kimball's detective skills. Thanks to Liz, we (and the Pond Squad) are able to totally recall the night from her front-stage photography, and she'll sing ya a hell of a tune if the mood catches her right ("Jingle all the way")! These are not true lies folks; she is the Red Sonja of the Beaver Pond world.

We love ya Liz and we're happy to have you as a Pond Squad All-Star!!

You haven't lived until you've worn a hat made of fruit!  At least that's Papa Beaver's credo.  And where would he be without Tonja?  That's right folks. She is personally responsible for the design and concept of Papa's beautiful fruit headdress that graces his gorgeous dome during such tropical songs as "Volcano".

But that's not all!!  Tonja is also an enthusiastic Pond Squad member who has been with us from the very early days.  Tonja loves everything about the band....even when they make "funny" faces.  We love Tonja for her bright spirit and smiling face.  Is it legal to be as happy as she is?  We hope so!  Welcome Tonja; you are an All Star!!!

ASIDE FROM HAVING A PAIR OF THE BEST SIDEBURNS IN THE BUSINESS, COUSIN CHRIS TYPES HIS EMAILS IN ALL CAPS.  HE IS A CONSTANT FIXTURE AT BEAVER POND SHOWS AND HE IS EVERYONE'S FAVORITE COUSIN. LADIES, HE’S ALSO QUITE STRONG.  EVEN AFTER A FULL NIGHT OUT, C.C. HAS BEEN KNOWN TO HOIST COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF HEAVY EQUIPMENT ON HIS BACK TO HELP THE BAND LOAD OUT.

Is it Experience?  Explosion?  Either way Rick has been a tried and true friend of the Pond and an All-Star.  This handsome young beast has opened for the Pond on more than one occasion. At one point, Rick played the bass with the Beaver Pond for a sold out show in Mukwonago. He has selected a career which gives him winters off.  When asked why, he stated that he prefers indoor Beaver Pond Shows…and frenchin'.

WWWWHAT?  YEAAYA!  Do you know why there has never been a fight at any Rocky Mountain Beaver Pond show...ever?  There are two reasons actually.  First, the Pond Squad are lovers not fighters...and second (and undoubtedly more importantly)...no one in their right mind would try to pull anything with RMBP's Chief of Security Luke "the Meatman" on hand.

"Bill the Butcher" ain't got nothin' on this guy.  Luke does his best to keep the stage free of those who don't belong there and is especially skilled at luring monkeys back into the crowd.  He's friendly yet firm, stable yet seductive.  He is the only man alive with the ability to chew off the top of beer cans and we recently found out that he has the ability to curl his moustache up like the Pringles guy.  That alone would've been enough to make him an All-Star!

In the late 70s, two of Mama Beaver’s litters produced two members of the Beaver Pond.  So, you could say that she is personally responsible for 40% of our sound! Since she is married to Papa Beaver it could be argued that she actually responsible for 60% of our sound!  

She feeds the entire band on a regular basis; moments before we rehearse, we load our stomachs to near bursting capacity with her famous sloppy joe’s, potato cheese casserole, and other band favorites. She has even offered up her home as refuge for the Pond most Tuesday nights.

Mama Beaver is our behind-the-scenes first aid coordinator, tavern relations specialist, golf course liaison, chef, and most importantly our NUMBER 1 FAN!  You are a mother to us all.....except Papa Beaver....that would be gross!

Since we've never seen Ken or Ann without the other, we assume that they are in fact some sort of highly evolved two-headed being which is equal parts rock fan and Long Wong's bouncer.  Astonishingly, this dangerous combo has only missed about 4 shows during the 14 or so years that RMBP has been together.  

These fanatics use words like "frightening" and "awesome" when describing the last RMBP show they've seen.  They also teach a class at UWM called "How to Successfully Collect Cover Charges at a Chinese-American Sports Bar".  Welcome aboard Ken & Ann!

No shirt?  No problem!  If you were to look up loyalty in the dictionary it might say "see Portz".  And when you get there, you'll find his photograph.  And there it is.....in its full glory.....a proud father and husband with his shirt off standing on the stage of any RMBP show (he doesn't miss many), aimlessly staring at his boyhood friend Marc....who is uncomfortably playing the drums while pleading w/ Portz to step down.

Thank you for everything....All Star!!!!!  For God's sake, he named his firstborn after a member of the Beaver Pond.  Welcome aboard Portz!!! 

It is with great pride that we introduce you to our very first ever Pond Squad All-Star. Ladies and gentleman we're happy to present...Kristi!

She has been there from the very beginning. Her attendance record has been stellar. Speaking of firsts...she owned the home with a detached garage where our first ever Whitewater show took place. She has introduced more NEW people to the Beaver Pond then any other fan. More recently, Kristi rented a full sized yellow school bus in order to accommodate the 20 plus people she brought along to the Rocky Horror Beaver Show at Calhoun Station. She is a treasure to the Beaver Pond Nation, and we're DAM lucky to have her. RMBP Loves Ya Kristi!

YOU COULD BE NEXT!

Are you disappointed that you weren't the first All-Star? Well don't be. There are a lot of soon-to-be All-Stars roaming around out there. You could be next. Keep your eyes peeled as there are many more All-Stars to come in the next few months!!
